Good thing for the Celtics that Garnett turned it down. The All-Star center scored eight of his 12 points in the fourth quarter and added 11 rebounds to help the Celtics overcome historically poor shooting and beat the Chicago Bulls 71-69 on Wednesday night. "I'm seeing everybody in here playing through everything. I'm no different from that," said Garnett, who played 26 minutes. "Everybody's tired. I felt like that was unfair. If he wasn't going to give everybody the night off, then that wasn't an option. I just came out and gave what I could." "I told them before the game I wasn't going to play Kevin much and there was a chance I may not play him," said Rivers, who had wanted to leave Garnett home for Monday's game in Charlotte but got talked into playing him there. "I told them it's going to be an ugly game. ... And this is before the game. The Celtics scored 19 points in the second and third quarters combined, tying for third-lowest in NBA history and setting a franchise record for the fewest points in consecutive quarters since the shot-clock era began. Their 71 points was the third-least in a win since the 24-second clock was added in 1954-55. The teams now break for All-Star Weekend, then the Celtics begin a five-game road trip and do not return to TD Garden until March 1. The Bulls resume their season Tuesday night at New Orleans. "The last game before the All-Star break is a strange game," Rivers said. "You've got half the guys who are tired, you've got a group of guys who are already in the Dominican Republic. And then you have banged-up guys. So you have a lot of things going on in that game, and you could see it." -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 116.59.251.111
